Data

We connect directly to your Buffer (buffer.com) account, via their API, to:
– Fetch your social media profile names and IDs,
– Send your WordPress Posts to one or more of your social media profiles. The profiles and content sent will depend on the plugin settings you have configured.

We connect to our own API to pass the following requests through to Buffer:
– Connect our Plugin to Buffer, when you click the Authorize button (this obtains an access token from Buffer, once you have approved authorization)

Both of these are done via our own API, to ensure that no secret data (such as oAuth client secret keys) are included in this Plugin’s code or made public.

We never store any information on our web site or API during this process.

I tried a few different options to auto-post, very few worked well, some worked well with Twitter, hardly any works with Facebook these days, which is why the combination of Buffer and this Plugin is the best of all worlds. Love it.

Fix: Publish: Removed global $post reference, which caused some installations to fetch the wrong Post to send to Buffer
